Ipulse: October 2009 Introducing “The Fred,” a Sensational New Drink October 30, 2009 by Samantha Filed under Campus, Food Leave a Comment Student Jump Starts His Career by Means of Culinary Creativity By JACOB BALOT Fred Apaloo is a sophomore majoring in hospitality. Apaloo is from Ghana, West Africa, and came to Lynn for the weather and for his major. Apaloo created a new drink in Christine’s for which he is very much known for. “The way they make it just makes my day so much better,” said Luiana Porto, senior. Balot: What is the drink called? Apaloo: “It is called ‘The Fred’.” Balot: What is in “The Fred”? Apaloo: “Dashes of sensational flavors mixed, which I won’t disclose now. It is mixed in with naturally brewed coffee and some ice. And to finish it off, a toss of milk. “The Fred” also comes fat free though.” Balot: How did you come up with the idea for “The Fred?” Apaloo: “I am a very picky coffee drinker and there are only certain limited coffee based drinks that I enjoy. Christine’s didn’t have anything that I really enjoyed so one day I decided to experiment with some of the flavors and “The Fred” was born through that. “The Fred” is going to be coming out soon as a hot beverage as well. I’m working hard on it!” Balot: Is it on the menu? Apaloo: “Not yet, but I am working on it. I’ve spoken with the SGA president about it and it’s a work in progress. None-the-less, I have about 50 plus students who love this and purchase it on a daily basis. In fact, staff also adore it.” Balot: Do you want to work at Christine’s? Apaloo: “No, I came here for a reason and that is to get an education so that’s what I am going to do. I am just using my gifts to create that’s all!” Balot: Do you plan on making more drinks? Apaloo: “Well in the future definitely. I just want to take it one step at a time. Who knows, maybe a sandwich, maybe some desserts? I think I have a gift to create so I definitely have to utilize it.” Balot: How much is “The Fred?” Apaloo: “Well it ranges from $2.72 to $3.04, which is still cheaper than most of the iced coffee drinks at Christine’s.” Balot: How did you spread the word about “The Fred?” Apaloo: “I am very outgoing, so it was very easy for me to approach people at Christine’s and I asked them to try something new. For the most part, it worked.” Dressed Up Pets Hope for Tasty Treats October 30, 2009 by Samantha Filed under Best of Boca, Fashion, Lifestyle Leave a Comment Pets are Pampered and Adorned to Join in This Year’s Halloween Festivities By KATRINA JARVIS Tomorrow, Oct. 31 from 11 a.m to 1 p.m, everyone is invited to celebrate Halloween in Delray Beach with those they love, their pets.

History of the Haunting and Horrifying Holiday October 30, 2009 by Samantha Filed under Campus, Featured Leave a Comment Popular Pagan Party Makes its Presence Known in Present Pop Culture By PATRICIA LAMMLE and CARLOS SANZ Halloween’s origins date back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain. The Celts lived 2,000 years ago in the areas of Ireland, the United Kingdom and France. They celebrated their new year on November 1st marking the end of summer and the harvest, and the beginning of the dark, cold winter. This time of the year was often associated with human death because Celts believed that on the night before the New Year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. On the night of Oct. 31, they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed the ghosts of the dead returned to earth. Celts believed that the presence of the otherworldly spirits made it easier for the Priests to make predictions about the future. In commemoration of the event, Celtic Priests built sacred bonfires where the people gathered to burn their crops and animals as sacrifices to the Celtic deities. During this commemoration, the people would wear costumes, which consisted of animal heads and skins. They did this in order to not be recognized by the ghosts or spirits that came to the Earth. Celts would also place bowls of food outside their homes to appease the ghosts and prevent them from attempting to enter their homes. When the commemoration was over they would re-lit the fires they had built the night before in order to protect them from the coming winter. In the course of history, Romans invaded and ruled most of the Celtic territory. By the 800s, the influence of Christianity had spread into most of the land. Pope Boniface designated Nov. 1 as All Saint’s Day, a time to honor saints and martyrs. It is widely believed that this was an attempt to replace the Celtic festival of the dead with a related, but church controlled holiday. The celebration was called All-hallowmas, and the night before it, the night of Samhain, began to be called All-hallows Eve, and eventually Halloween. As time progressed, the church eventually made Nov. 2 All Souls’ Day, a day to honor the dead. As European immigrants came to America, they brought their Halloween customs with them. Because of very rigid Protestant beliefs, it was much more common in the southern colonies. As different ethnic and racial groups mixed, an American version of Halloween emerged. Celebrations included public events held to celebrate the harvest, where neighbors would share stories of the ghosts and the dead, and tell each other’s fortunes. When America was flooded with immigrants in the 19th century, it helped popularize the celebration of Halloween. Americans began to dress up in costumes and go house-to-house asking for food or money, a practice that would eventually be called “trick-or- treat.” Halloween quickly became one of the most popular celebrations for both children and adults in the country. “I find the story of Halloween very interesting. and enjoy celebrating it every year,” said Adriana Montealegre, sophomore. Halloween did lose most of its superstitious and religious overtones when communities and newspapers encouraged leaders to take “frightening” and “grotesque” things out of the celebration. This was because vandalism spread around communities at this time. The practice of “trick-or-treat” was highly esteemed, as it was a cheap way for the entire community to share the celebration. Today, Americans spend an estimated $6.9 billion annually on Halloween. Angela Barioli, senior, said, “It gives you a chance to be someone that you are not regularly.” Legalized Drugs: Are They Harmful or Helpful? October 30, 2009 by Samantha Filed under Campus Leave a Comment The Use of Prescribed Methamphetamine Drugs by College Students By KATHERINE PAXSON The world has become reliant on the use, and sometimes misuse, moreover, diagnosing of prescription pills in the collegiate demographic has spiked as well. The will and competition to achieve, excel and strive to be the best has pushed some students to actually convince themselves that drugs such as Adderall and Riddillin are necessary to succeed. “I believe methamphetamines drugs that are prescribed are being abused,” said Scott Roberts, graduate student. “They are too readily available for college students.” According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, in the year 2000 alone, the age demographic of users of methamphetamines dropped by four years, giving the younger demographic the upper hand on methamphetamine use. The age could be directly correlated to the type of person in that demographic using the drug. Hence, the affiliation and impact it has on students on college campuses is dramatic. The effects of methamphetamines have been known to accelerate the heart rate, giving the user a sudden burst of energy and the ability to focus or concentrate. Other terms for the drug have been referred to as tweak, uppers, speed, black beauties, glass and so on. Adderall and Riddillin are prescribed by medical professionals to people with Attention Deficit Disorders and Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorders. Basically, it speeds up and triggers the brain to focus. Therefore, students are using these pills to study and achieve better grades. “Adderall, when it works, is great and can help you focus on the tasks at hand,” said Andrew Wood, senior. “The downside is that it makes you chain smoke and can cause sleep deprivation; that affects my overall mental mood.” In some instances, it is even convincing students that he or she has these disorders because everyone has trouble concentrating or wants a longer attention span. Does this mean everyone requires this medicine? The availability of these particular “speed” drugs is getting easier every day. With a doctor’s appointment and a convincing argument for necessity, basically anyone can obtain these drugs.

By Dorothy Crouch Associate Editor In 2018, two female researchers studied women in tech- nology and asked this question: Do technology companies alienate women in recruiting sessions? The answer was yes. After observing 84 recruitment ses- sions by technology companies on a university campus in the United States, researchers Shelley Correll, head of Stanford University’s Clayman Institute for Gender Research, and Alison Wynn, a postdoctoral researcher, found that fe- male candidates pursuing quantitative degrees in technology fields were often subjected to gender-imbalanced interviews, which left qualified women feeling discouraged. Together they published “Puncturing the Pipeline: Do Technology Companies Alienate Women in Recruiting Ses- sions?” ➥ Technology page 3 Max Azria, Founder of the BCBGMaxAzria Group, Passes Away in Houston By Deborah Belgum Executive Editor Max Azria, whose imprint on the Los Angeles fashion world is legendary, passed away on May 6 at The Univer- sity of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.

But things didn’t turn out as planned as the political winds in Europe and the United States shifted recently from pro free trade to increased protectionism. President Donald Trump, after taking office early this year, indicated he wasn’t a big fan of multilateral free-trade accords. He quickly torpedoed the Trans-Pacific Partner- ship—the free-trade accord between the United States and 11 other Pacific Rim countries—and then threatened to tear up the 23-year-old North American Free-Trade Agreement. ➥ Free Trade page 3 Creativity Abounds in California’s Economy By Deborah Belgum Senior Editor California is the most creative place in the United States.

Ct. No. 19STCV26534) v. RYAN SEACREST PRODUCTIONS, LLC, et al., Defendants and Appellants. APPEAL from an order of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, Michelle Williams Court, Judge. Affirmed with modifications. Loeb & Loeb, David A. Grossman and Todd J. Densen for Defendants and Appellants. The Cochran Firm California and James A. Bryant for Plaintiff and Respondent. _________________________ INTRODUCTION Plaintiff, a model, participated in a fashion show that was filmed and aired on television in an episode of the reality series Shahs of Sunset. The model never signed a release authorizing or agreeing to be filmed. She sued the show’s production and media companies for various causes of action after discovering she was filmed while changing clothes in a dressing area designated for models, and that her “nearly fully nude body had been exposed on national television” during the airing of the show. Defendant production and media companies filed a special motion to strike the model’s complaint as a strategic lawsuit against public participation under the anti-SLAPP statute, Code of Civil Procedure section 425.16. They first argued the model’s claims arose from protected activity, that is, the production and broadcast of a television show involving issues of public interest. They next argued she is unlikely to prevail on her causes of action. While the trial court agreed that the acts complained of constitute protected activity, it denied the special motion to strike, finding that the model had established a probability of prevailing on the merits of her causes of action.
